Wasn't able to find it going back to page 10, did it have a weird title?

What are your power goals though? 15-20psi is not a power levels, it will vary a lot with certain factors.

TRexGAWD i'm looking for 500-600 rwhp, i think that is a reasonable goal with a 2v. I want to save as much as possible. i would like to keep is under 3000 but i realize thats probably not going to happen and its going to end up around 5000.

Another ? is: i have 39 pound injectors are they big enough for my goal?

Lol, yeah sorry but no way you're keeping that under 3000 unless you buy a lot of used and do all the work yourself.. Helps that you have the turbo kit already though.. A built 2V is more than capable of producing that though.. Check out DSS blocks, there's others out there that's just my preference.. Livernois and MMR make great stuff too.. You might be able to find an entry level used block around though if you look hard..

Oh, and I would bump up the injectors and pump.. the last thing you want is to lean out

The way I see it is if you want it to be reliable and powerful then don't be cheap on it.. You also have to worry about your transmission at that power level too.. A lot of little support items, etc.. I would expect to spend 5-10 depending on brands you use and how comfortable you want to be making the power.
